    A showcase of history ~ a legacy of hospitality.

    Antiquities' Wellington Inn - Traverse City, Michigan Enter the stately mahogany and leaded glass foyer
    and be transported in time to an era
    of quiet and gracious living.
    A time when life was slower . . .
    when families entertained at home . . .
    and downtown was a leisurely stroll
    past elegant neighborhood homes.

    "Now there is no place else to stay in Traverse City other than the Wellington Inn."- Roberta U.

    Tea RoomOne can almost hear the sound of fine crystal and great conversation that must have taken place around the massive table that once occupied this turn-of-the-century dining room. Today this beautiful room, with it original stained glass windows, ceiling and wall fixtures, is our guest dining room where we continue using vintage china and silver to serve sumptuous breakfasts and private teas.

     

    "The excellent food and elegant surroundings are
    exceeded only by Barb's and Hank's gracious hospitality.
    Never have we felt more comfortable away from home."
